Hi I'm Dean and I'm 63 years old. I have been diagnosed with this for over four years but just this month went on medication ( Topiramate ). My seizures have been somewhat mild and have refused medication until my Neurologist threatened to take my driving license away. The side effects of the meds are horrible. Here is my question for somebody. I get the sz only in April that coincides with my allergies. I can count on it every year. They go away in the summer and winter.
